Port Vale have confirmed this afternoon’s home game with Cambridge United (3pm) should go ahead despite snow overnight and this morning.

Head groundsman Steve Speed and his staff have been working hard to clear the pitch of snow and remove the covers this morning, aided by other staff at the club as well as Vale fans after the Valiants put out a call for volunteers at 10am .

Speed and his staff have also been clearing walkways around the ground to make them safe.
